"content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. I support the Motion of Adjournment. My name is Samuel Poghisio and I represent the people of the great county of West Pokot in this Senate. First, since this is my maiden speech, I would like to use this opportunity to congratulate you, the Speaker, for your election and also congratulate your Deputy for his election today. Further, I congratulate all my colleagues who were elected and nominated to this House. This is a place for us to understand and work to know the entire country. Much as I represent the people of West Pokot County, the induction will help me to bond with my colleagues and I will begin to understand the country. Let me also say that the idea of asking our colleagues across the aisle to come for the induction is so that we can bond. It does not matter what ideas you have or what your philosophy is, when it comes to bonding and induction, there should be no differences among us; we should be one. The country requires peace and economic stability. It also requires that we keep things cool, so that we do not have interruptions in our day to day lives. Therefore, I request my colleagues who will be available to attend this induction. The purpose of being representatives at the county level and especially now that we have approved the cash disbursement schedule is so that we can understand how we play our oversight role and also for shepherding our various counties into success and prosperity. I look forward to the induction because we want to make this second Senate very vibrant so that it claims its rightful place. Going out there we will be able to arrange, understand and learn so that when we come back in our vibrancy we can move the Senate a step higher. I support."
